In reaction to Rabbit Hole Day, ceruleanst says, "Fuckabunchathat. Go *DO* something surreal, instead of just making it up." As a card-carrying Erisian, I support that. Of course, I support the making it up, too.

So anyway. This weekend, I went to Iowa with zylch, to talk about fund-raising and church stewardship in the UUA. I think that fulfills ceruleanst's requirements. *boggle* On the one hand, we told them all about the God Auction as a fund-raiser, and fully half of them thought it was a good idea (although they were initially suspicious of the mention of gods). On the other, the painfully earnest quotient was high, and we were, of course, the youngest people in the room by at least 15 years. Mildly trippy on both counts.

But I'm back now. Did you miss me?

Glad there was no flaming death! Though pickup truck ballet can be a bit un-nerving. Hope everyone was okay and am very glad after re-reading this that it was not in fact Semi Truck Ballet which is a whole nother land of choreography.

My favorite (‽‽) highway accident involved a Flying Semi-Truck. It was...impressive.

That wasn't the one that involved you coming off a mountain just as they closed it down for traffic, was it?

Nope, I should have specified "accident I wasn't involved in".

Northern Plains + Straight Line Winds + Empty Tractor-Trailer = Airborne Truck surfing into the ditch.

Eh, I was in control the whole time. Well, there were about 1.5 seconds where I started to slip a bit (just before the truck ballet began), but nothing my KC ice storm-honed mad driving skillz couldn't handle with ease. These Iowegians are great at snow, but ice? Not so much.
